MEMORIAL  RESOLUTIONS  AND 
ADDRESSES. 


In  the  Senate, 
I  Tuesday,  March  7,  1911. 

AFTERNOON  SESSION. 

Pursuant  to  adjournment  the  Senate  was  called  to 
order  at  two  o'clock  post  meridian,  the  President  Pro 
Tempore,  Mr.  Crow,  in  the  chair. 

PRAYER. 

Prayer  was  offered  by  Reverend  Harry  'Nelson 
Bassler,  as  follows : 

Almighty  and  everlasting  God,  Thou  "who  hast 
created  us  and  breathed  into  our  mortal  bodies  the 
breath  of  life,  into  Thy  presence  we  come,  at  Thy 
throne  of  mercy  we  humbly  bow,  beseeching  Thy  di- 
vine blessing  upon  us  this  day  and  upon  this  service. 
We  know  that  our  lives  are  precious  in  Thy  sight.  We 
know  that  in  the  midst  of  life  we  are  in  death  and  that 
man's  stay  here  is  as  a  flower  of  the  field.  He  cometh 
forth  as  the  grass  in  the  morning,  it  flourisheth  and 
groweth  up,  in  the  evening  it  is  cut  down  and  withereth 
— for  our  days  are  passed  away  in  Thy  wrath;  we 
spend  our  years  as  a  tale  that  is  told.  O  God,  we  thank 
Thee  this  day  for  the  blessed  memory  of  him  who  has 
lived  and  passed  away.  We  thank  Thee  for  his  strong 
manhood,  as  it  was  exemplified  in  his  stay  in  our

midst ;  we  thank  Thee  for  the  years  in  which  we  were 
privileged  to  mingle  with  him.  May  all  that  he  has 
said  and  done  be  as  good  seed  sown  in  good  ground 
and  redound  to  Thy  name's  honor  and  glory.  We  pray, 
Master,  Thy  special  blessing  upon  those  who  bow 
under  the  great  burden  of  sorrow ;  be  with  them,  com- 
fort, strengthen  and  keep  them;  wipe  the  tears  from 
their  eyes  and  pour  the  oil  of  gladness  on  their  hearts. 
Lift  up  the  heads  that  hang  down  and  strengthen  the 
souls  that  are  overburdened.  We  pray  Thy  forgive- 
ness for  our  sins  this  afternoon;  speak  to  us  and  call 
us  closer  to  Thy  side,  that  living  here  in  the  light 
of  Thy  countenance  we  may  be  crowned  with  life  ever- 
lasting to  abide  with  those  who  have  lived  and  passed 
on  before.  May  Thy  divine  benediction  rest  upon  all 
that  is  said  and  done  this  day.  We  ask  it  in  Jesus* 
name  and  for  Jesus'  sake.    Amen. 

Mr.  SALUS.  Mr.  President,  by  the  direction  of  the 
committee  appointed  to  draft  resolutions  expressing 
the  sentiments  of  the  Senate  on  the  death  of  the  Hon- 
orable Israel  W.  Durham,  I  offer  the  following  reso- 
lutions : 

RESOLUTIONS. 

Whereas,  Almighty  God  in  His  wisdom  ordained 
that  the  Honorable  Israel  W.  Durham,  of  the  Second 
Senatorial  District  of  Philadelphia  County,  should  be 
called  to  his  last  resting  place,  and 

Whereas,  He  endeared  himself  to  all  with  whom  he 
came  in  contact  both  in  public  and  private  life,  and  be- 
cause of  his  ardent  and  persistent  devotion  to  the  cause 
of  his  fellow  man  and  his  unselfish  loyalty  to  the  in- 
terests of  this  Commonwealth,  he  was  elected  to  this 
body  by  his  constituents;  therefore,  be  it 


Eon.  Israel  W.  Durham. 


Resolved,  That  the  Senate  of  Pennsylvania, 
in  appreciation  of  the  sterling  qualities  and  high 
unselfish  character  of  our  late  member,  extend  to 
the  family  of  the  deceased  Senator  our  sincerest  sym- 
pathy in  their  great  loss,  and  direct  that  a  copy  of 
these  resolutions,  duly  engrossed  and  attested,  be  for- 
warded to  the  members  of  the  bereaved  family  of  the 
deceased. 

SAMUEL  W.  SALUS, 
ERNEST  L.  TUSTIN, 
WILLIAM  C.  SPROUL, 
WILLIAM  H.  KEYSER, 
JAMES  P.  McNICHOL, 
JAMES  K.  P.  HALL, 
EDWIN  H.  VARE, 
CLARENCE  WOLF. 

On  the  question. 

Will  the  Senate  agree  to  the  resolutions? 

ADDRESSES. 

Mr.  SALUS.  Mr.  President  and  members  here  as- 
sembled of  the  Senate,  I  believe  that  it  is  just  in  ac- 
cordance with  the  custom  on  occasions  such  as  this 
that  it  should  be  proper  for  me,  representing  as  I  do 
the  district  from  which  our  late  lamented  member 
came,  to  say  a  few  words  in  regard  to  the  manliness 
and  the  character  of  the  man  for  whom  these  services 
are  being  held.  If  I  came  from  another  district,  if  I 
came  from  a  place  far  from  where  he  came,  the  fair 
reputation  of  that  late  lamented  member  has  been  so 
heralded  by  his  deeds  and  achievements  that  I,  as  well 
as  every  other  man  who  takes  the  interest  of  this 
Commonwealth  to  his  heart,  would  be  able  to  speak 


10  Memorial  Services. 

of  his  achievements.  But  coming  as  I  do  from  his  im- 
mediate neighborhood,  knowing  him  as  I  did  from  the 
days  when  I  first  went  to  school,  I  can  but  tell  you  of 
my  recollection  of  him,  not  only  in  my  political  life,  but 
in  my  boyhood  days,  and  of  him  there  was  said  by  all 
that  knew  him  one  thing  that  showed  his  manliness, 
his  character,  more  than  all  things  else  that  I  can  re- 
member, and  that  was  that  he  was  the  young  man's 
friend,  that  it  was  his  ambition  in  life  to  start  the 
young  man  on  the  right  road,  to  stand  by  him  and  see 
him  go  step  by  step  upward  and  onward  until  that 
young  man  or  that  number  of  young  men  shall  have 
accomplished  something  in  this  life;  and  the  best 
proof  of  the  fact  that  that  represents  his  char- 
acter can  be  seen  by  the  many  young  men  in 
public  life  to-day  who  are  doing  justice  to 
themselves  and  to  the  Commonwealth  of  Penn- 
sylvania, who  had  their  first  start,  their  in- 
ception, in  the  guiding  hand  of  Israel  W.  Durham. 
Those  men  range  from  Justices  of  the  Supreme  Court 
of  Pennsylvania  down  to  the  humble  ward  worker,  and 
among  the  young  men  in  politics  in  Philadelphia  par- 
ticularly, there  is  a  unison,  a  companionship  of  brother- 
hood as  it  were,  of  the  followers  of  Israel  W.  Durham. 
I  know  of  no  time  within  my  life  that  I  have  failed  of 
the  power  of  speech  more  than  I  do  now,  that  I  may 
fittingly  picture  to  you  a  portrait  that  would  do  justice 
to  the  character  of  this  man,  but  my  vocabulary  fails 
me.  I  am  not  fitted  for  the  occasion.  Here  was  a  man 
reared  in  the  commoner  walks  of  life.  Here  was  a  man 
educated  in  our  public  schools,  that  which  is  the  bul- 
wark of  our  nation,  that  which  is  the  foundation  of 
American  grandeur  and  success.  In  harking  back  and 
looking  into  the  history  of  the  great  men  of  our  nation 


Eon.  Israel  W.  Durham,  11 

we  come  to  but  one  forcible  conclusion,  and  that  is 
that  the  cornerstone  of  their  greatness  lies  in  the  fact 
that  they  have  had  the  benefit  of  our  great  educational 
system.  Israel  W.  Durham  was  a  commoner;  his  edu- 
cation was  gotten  in  the  grammar  school,  but  immedi- 
ately upon  leaving  school  he  started  out  in  the  battle 
of  life,  and  it  might  be  said  that  after  all  his  calling 
was  that  of  a  politician.  That  possibly  was  his  calling, 
but  in  that  calling  he  won  the  admiration  and  the  re- 
spect of  every  man  who  dealt  with  him.  Every  one 
knew  that  his  word  was  his  bond  and  somehow,  some- 
where or  some  place,  under  some  condition,  some  one 
well  named  him  the  peerless  leader,  and  peerless  leader 
he  was,  a  leader  of  men  somewhat  different  than  the 
leaders  that  we  know  in  many  walks  of  life.  He  was  a 
man  who  was  led  by  the  friendships  that  he  made,  by 
the  word  that  he  kept  and  by  the  goodwill  and  the  will- 
ing hand,  and  not  by  force,  not  by  power,  but  solely  be- 
cause of  the  fact  that  those  who  learned  to  know  him 
learned  to  love  him,  and  once  they  had  learned  to  love 
him  learned  to  follow  him.  You  never  knew  anything 
else  but  to  move  onward  and  upward  behind  his  guid- 
ing star.  For  the  young  men  in  Philadelphia  politics 
the  star  of  Israel  W.  Durham  was  the  north  star  that 
led  them  on  to  success.  And  now  I  think  it  may  well 
be  said  of  him,  as  ofttimes  has  been  said  of  others  be- 
fore, "Well  done,  good  and  faithful  servant,"  well  done, 
you  have  left  behind  you  only  the  fondest  memories 
and  fondest  recollections  of  those  who  have  known  you 
in  your  life,  and  may  3^our  example  be  followed  by  the 
generations  yet  to  come. 

Mr.  TUSTIN.  Mr.  President,  In  the  short  time  that 
I  have  been  in  the  Senate,  the  Grim  Reaper  has  been 
most  busy.

"Like  other  tyrants,  death  delights  to  smite 

What,    smitten,   most  proclaims  the  pride  of  power 

And  arbitrary  nod.     His  joy  supreme 

To  bid  the  wretch  survive  the  fortunate , 

The  feeble  wrap  the  athlete  in  his  shroud 

And  weeping  fathers  build  their  children's  tomb." 

The  young  and  talented  Roberts,  the  courageous  and 
forceful  Crawford,  the  stalwart  Republican,  George 
Vare,  the  equally  stalwart  Democrat,  Rowland,  have, 
with  others  of  our  number,  passed  to  that  bourne  from 
whence  no  traveler  ere  returns.  Among  those  who 
have  left  us,  however,  none  has  possessed  as  large  a 
personal  following  as  Senator  Durham.  In  the  politi- 
cal life  of  our  State  and  municipality  of  Philadelphia, 
he  was  a  potent  leader.  Born  in  Philadelphia,  October 
24,  1856,  he  received  a  public  school  education,  and 
subsequently  learned  the  trade  of  brickmaking.  At  an 
early  age  he  turned  to  politics  and  identifying  himself 
with  the  dominant  party  of  that  city,  he  soon  became 
one  of  the  acknowledged  leaders  and  finally  became 
supreme  in  the  councils  of  its  party. 

In  1885  he  was  elected  a  police  magistrate  of  Phila- 
delphia; was  re-elected  in  1890,  and  in  1897  he  was 
elected  a  State  Senator  from  the  Sixth  District,  to  fill 
the  unexpired  term  of  Hon.  Boies  Penrose.  He  was 
again  re-elected  in  1908,  to  take  the  place  of  Senator 
Scott,  and  died  while  a  member  of  the  Senate,  on  the 
28th  day  of  June,  1909.  He  possessed  in  a  large  degree 
a  wonderful  magnetism,  indomitable  courage,  unques- 
tioned loyalty,  and  above  all  unimpeached  veracity. 
The  strongest  attribute  of  his  character,  however,  was 
the  personal  affection  which  he  inspired  in  his  fol- 
lowers, thousands  of  whom  followed  not  on  account  of 
his  position,  nor  of  his  power,  but  from  genuine  heart- 
felt affection  for  Durham  as  a  man. 


Hon.  Israel  W,  Durham.  13 

This  trait  in  his  character  furnished  his  strongest 
political  power  and  doubtless  came  from  the  beautiful 
affection  toward  the  members  of  his  family.  The  lov- 
ing care  of  his  aged  father,  his  brothers  and  sisters, 
nieces  and  nephews,  form  a  most  pleasing  picture  in 
his  eventful  and  stormy  life.  He  possessed  a  philoso- 
phical mind,  accepting  success  or  failure  with  equal 
unanimity,  and  prior  to  the  illness  which  clouded  his 
later  years  he  often  quoted  from  James  Whitcomb 
Riley : 

"I've  alius  noticed,    great  success 
Is  mixed  with  troubles ,   more  or  less ; 
And  it's  the  man  who  does  the  best, 
That  gets  more  kicks  than  all  the  rest." 

His  quiet  charities  and  unselfish  generosities  were 
best  known  only  to  his  immediate  circle  of  friends ;  few 
were  the  appeals  to  his  generosity  that  did  not  receive 
substantial  consideration.  Hundreds  of  the  destitute 
and  unfortunate  throughout  the  city  of  Philadelphia 
will  not  only  miss  his  liberal  help  but  his  kindly  in- 
terest and  disinterested  advice. 

He  had  his  faults;  no  man  can  come  into  the  lime- 
light of  public  life  whose  failings  do  not  become  public 
property  and  in  the  publicity  gain  in  number  and  mag- 
nitude. But  he  rests  in  his  last  quiet  home — let  him 
that  is  without  sin  cast  the  first  stone,  and  let  the 
others  of  us  remember  him  for  his  pleasant  smile,  his 
cheerful  greeting,  his  great  sympathy,  his  prompt  help 
and  his  absolute  loyalty  to  his  friends  and  the  party  in 
which  he  was  an  honored  leader. 

Mr.  McNICHOL.  Mr.  President,  This  is  an  occasion 
on  which  I  would,  if  I  gave  expression  of  my  thoughts, 
ask  to  be  excused  from  saying  anything,  and  after  lis- 


14  Memorial  Services. 

tening  to  the  magnificent  recitals  by  the  two  preceding 
Senators,  I  find  it  very  difficult  to  give  expres- 
sion to  my  feelings  at  this  time.  I  had  been  and 
was  particularly  associated  with  my  dearest  of  friends, 
the  late  Senator  Durham,  and  traveled  with  him 
through  the  turbulence  of  the  last  fifteen  years  of  pub- 
lic life  as  well  as  in  a  business  life,  and  to  undertake 
now  to  picture  the  characteristics  and  the  qualifications 
and  the  qualities  of  the  man  to  me  would  be  almost  a 
task  that  would  consume  more  time  than  I  could  find 
to  give  expression  to  the  words.  There  is  no  man  in 
the  State  of  Pennsylvania,  nor  was  there  any  man  in 
the  State  of  Pennsylvania,  who  did  more,  from 
the  standpoint  of  having  a  personal  interest  in 
the  welfare  and  development  of  the  State  of  which  he 
was  a  resident,  than  did  Senator  Durham  in  leading 
and  co-operating  with  his  advice  and  with  his  work  in 
securing  proper  representatives  and  co-operating  with 
the  people  of  Pennsylvania  in  placing  in  high  official 
positions  men  who,  if  they  carried  out  his  desires  and 
his  wishes,  would  have  been  and  have  been  a  credit  to 
the  State  of  Pennsylvania  and  the  offices  to  which  they 
were  elected.  There  is  no  man  in  the  city  of  Philadel- 
phia who  did  more  to  bring  about  a  development  and 
an  extension  of  its  growth  as  one  of  the  greatest  cities 
of  the  Union  than  did  our  friend.  Senator  Durham.  Of 
course,  in  the  ramifications  of  public  life,  as  said  by  the 
preceding  speakers,  men  have  got  to  stand  and  be  the 
target  of  all  conditions  and  opposition  of  thoughts  or 
ideas  that  might  develop  in  the  minds  of  people  for 
ulterior  purposes.  In  all  my  dealings  with  him,  I  can 
say  truthfully  that  they  were  always  of  an  honorable 
character,  and  of  his  charitable  nature  that  there  will 
be  a  lone  while  before  there  will  be  one  whose  charity 


Eon.  Israel  W.  Durham.  15 

extended  in  such  a  broad  space  or  in  more  walks  of 
life  than  did  that  of  Senator  Durham,  and  in  the  dis- 
pensing of  that  charity  there  was  no  singling  out  of 
either  race,  creed  or  color.  To  him  charity  meant  all 
that  the  good  Lord  desired  it  should  be  when  He  gave 
forth  His  sanction  to  what  charitable  work  should 
consist  of.  As  to  his  reverence  for  home,  if  we  had 
such  to-day  in  the  different  walks  of  life,  there  would 
be  no  necessity  in  a  large  measure  for  the  development 
that  we  find  in  these  Legislative  bodies  of  the  disposi- 
tion to  take  the  child  from  its  parents  and  put  it  under 
the  care  of  some  other  person  or  institution.  From  the 
day  that  he  was  able  to  know  anything  and  could  dis- 
cern things  until  the  day  that  he  died,  the  reverence 
that  he  had  for  his  parents,  the  reverence  that  he  had 
for  his  sisters  and  for  his  brothers,  and  the  reverence 
that  he  had  for  mankind  in  general,  was  an  example 
that,  if  followed  out,  not  only  in  the  confines  of  the  city 
of  Philadelphia,  but  throughout  the  State  of  Pennsyl- 
vania, would  show  that  home  is  truly  the  place  for  the 
development  of  all  that  is  good  in  all  of  us.  And  that  in 
the  person  of  our  late  departed  friend,  Senator 
Durham,  I  want  to  add  that  Philadelphia  and  Pennsyl- 
vania certainly  have  lost  a  great  man  and  a  good 
friend,  both  to  the  city  and  to  the  Commonwealth. 

Mr.  SPROUL.  Mr.  President,  I  have  not  prepared 
any  formal  remarks  for  this  occasion,  but  I  cannot  let 
the  opportunity  go  by  without  saying  a  few  simple 
words  expressive  of  my  feelings  toward  Israel  W. 
Durham.  When  I  came  to  the  Senate  in  1897,  Judge 
Durham,  as  he  was  called,  was  already  active  in 
politics,  and  later  in  that  session  he  became  a  member 
of  this  body.     At  that  time,  I  had  entirely  different 


16  Memorial  Services. 

views  regarding  the  eternal  fitness  of  things 
in  Republican  politics  in  the  State  with  those 
held  by  Senator  Durham,  but  I  nevertheless 
was  treated  so  absolutely  fairly  and  kindly  by 
him  that  1  realized  at  once  that  in  him  were  the 
qualities  of  leadership  which  even  then  his  friends 
were  pointing  out  would  make  him  what  he  afterwards 
became,  the  peerless  leader  in  Philadelphia.  In  later 
years  I  became  very  well  acquainted  with  him.  I 
learned  of  his  loyalty  to  his  friends,  his  generosity  to 
all  about  him,  his  kindness  of  heart,  and  his  devotion 
to  the  family  which  his  old  time  partner  and  colleague 
has  so  feelingly  alluded  to,  and  I  gained  the  greatest 
and  most  absolute  respect,  regard  and  friendship  for 
Senator  Durham.  Those  qualities  which  he  had  are 
among  the  very  greatest  that  a  man  can  have.  Really 
I  think  if  I  were  to  put  forward  the  three  things  which 
can  most  be  admired  in  the  man,  these  three  things 
would  certainly  be  his  truthfulness,  which  was  one  of 
his  greatest  characteristics;  his  absolute  fidelity  to 
friends  through  thick  and  thin,  and  his  devotion  and 
kindness  under  his  own  roof.  I  remember  that  I 
watched,  as  almost  everybody  else  did,  the  progress 
of  the  disease  which  finally  ended  in  his  taking  away. 
I  saw  the  way  that  he  viewed  what  he  knew  better 
than  those  around  him  was  an  almost  incurable  mal- 
ady, and  I  saw  the  patience  with  which  he  met  that 
condition  and  the  cheerfulness  with  which  he  met  the 
world  under  those  disadvantages,  and  then  friendship 
which  I  had  so  long  entertained  became  really  a  great 
deal  more  than  friendship.  I  was  away  off  yonder  on 
the  other  side  of  the  country,  engaged  in  some  business 
up  in  the  State  of  Washington,  when  one  night  I  picked 
up  a  Spokane  paper  and  saw  that  Israel  W.  Durham, 
the  great  Republican  leader  of  Pennsylvania  had  sud- 


Eon.  Israel  W.  Durliam.  17 


denly  passed  away.  I  was  all  alone  and  my  feelings 
at  that  time  were  really — well,  the  situation  got  very 
close  to  me.  I  felt  a  great  sense  of  personal  loss. 
You  have  different  feelings  regarding  different  people 
and  Durham's  loss  to  me  was,  as  it  was  to  a  great 
many  other  men  within  the  reach  of  m}^  voice,  a  direct 
personal  loss,  and  I  could  not  help  but  think  that 
night,  as  I  thought  of  him  going  out  from  that  home 
which  he  loved  so  much,  of  those  verses  of  John  Hay, 
which  I  thing  I  can  still  repeat : 

"My  short  and  happy  day  is  done, 
The  dark  uncertain  night  comes  on, 
Before  my  door  the  pale  horse  stands. 
To  bear  me  away  to  unknown  lands. 

His  whinny  shrill,  his  pawing  hoof, 
Sound  terrible  as  the  gathering  storm, 
And  I  must  leave  the  sheltering  roof, 
And  the  joys  of  life  so  soft  and  warm. 

Tender  and  warm  the  joys  of  life, 
Kind  friends,    the  faithful  and  the  true, 
My  rosy  children  and  my  wife, 
So  sweet  to  kiss,  so  fair  to  view. 

So  sweet  to  kiss,  so  fair  to  view. 
The  night  comes  on,    the  lamp  burns  blue. 
Before  my  door  the  pale  horse  stands. 
To  bear  me  away  tb  unknown  lands." 

And  the  question  recurring. 

Will  the  Senate  agree  to  the  resolution?
